YOU lived the gas lines! I was a cab driver during the rationing! I had to sit in gas lines 4 to 5 times a day.
My dad worked at the Exxon refinery in Baton Rouge. As a teenager, I drove a Sedan deVille, (you could buy them used for peanuts, then), which Dad filled every night with 5 gallons of fresh brewed Exxon Premium, he brought home from the plant in a can.
